Anybody got 4.5 million USD I can borrow? I could think of this boat as a floating gun safe, think of all the guns you could own and store and play with out in international waters and not have to worry about silly things like federal laws, lol.

    4.5 mil doesn't seem like a lot of money for an aircraft carrier. Looks like one hell of a deal to me.

    "The only way American citizens can adequately be protected from terror and violence is when" those in authority protect us from those who would harm us, instead of protecting us from ourselves.

    If you look at more boats on that site, they are even selling research vessels (the ones that carry the mini subs for extreme deep water diving) for less than 1 million bucks. Dammit!!!! I want an aircraft carrier ROFLMAO!

    If we all went together and bought it...

    it would still just be a houseboat (gun safe) cause we would't be able to pay for the fuel! [^]

    I used to build multi-million dollar yachts for a living,and now I repair them for extra gun money, once you get the darn thing the cost to operate and maintain the thing would end up far exceding the price you paid for it,so after the first 4.5Mil, there will certainly be many more mil in upkeep, food for thought....

    I think I'd just park it in international waters somewhere and live on it. I'd probably only move it if a hurricane was coming through. Get myself some military surplus aircraft capable of catapult launch and landing on a flight deck and just fly into town when I need something.......like more ammo for my flight deck shooting range.

    U.S. Dollars......they just wanted to make sure it wasn't mistaken for Canadian Dollars because then all they'd get would be about $45.00/USD after the exchange rate kicks in.

    I GOT IT,

    A floating Hooters!!!!!!!!!!!

    Paint her orange and put babes sunbathing all over the flight deck, and you got a moneymaker. [:D][:D][:D]

    And theres plenty of room under the flight deck, put the restaraunt in the hangerbay and you could still sleep 2500-3000 people

    Those people who see nothing but grey areas, no black and white, are lost in the fog.

    Just a Hooters? Man, we are talking international waters here.....I think we could do something a little more risque than just a hooters[:D]. How about a floating nudie bar and casino?
